Objective of the study was to develop a methodology for the formation of communication skills among university students by means of swimming training.
Methods and structure of the study. The experiment was carried out at the sports at the Saint-Petersburg State University of Civil Aviation named in honor of Air Chief Marshal A.A. Novikov (SPbUCA). The experimental group included 20 student swimmers, as well as the team captain as an assistant leader. To test the effectiveness of the methodology developed at SPbUCA with the participation of swimming specialists from Saint-Petersburg State University (SPbSU) and the State Institute of Economics, Finance, Law and Technology, the following methods were used: pedagogical experiment, pedagogical observations, survey, expert evaluation , test of communication skills, methods of mathematical statistics.
Results and conclusions. The paper notes that one of the most popular sports for students is swimming - an attractive form of physical activity, an effective means of professionally applied physical training and physical improvement for athletes. To work with a swimming sports group, the authors developed a methodology for the formation of communication skills among students, in which special tools were used that increase the level of communication between the participants in the training process, the emotional background and the level of independence of classes. One of the ways to improve communication was to unite student-athletes into a group with the appointment of a leader-assistant.

Keywords: physical culture, communication, swimming training, team, student.
